Hands-free toilet adapter
A toilet adapter which allows a user to lift the lid, the seat, and flush the toilet using three dedicated pedals and their respective actuating mechanisms. The lid pedal and the seat pedal utilize a crankshaft connection to rotate adapters that grasp the lid and the seat, raising the lid and seat as the pedal is pressed. The flush pedal uses a double pivot connection to pull down on an adapter that is secured to a toilet handle. The seat pedal and the flush pedal can be lifted to activate sub assemblies. A bidet assembly and a dryer assembly are operated by lifting the seat pedal and the flush pedal, respectively, with a brace provided so that the regular functions can still be accessed by pressing down. A variation can be implemented for urinals, in which the lid and seat components are unnecessary and left out.
